Whether your small business needs barcodes for its products or you want to organize your pantry, closet, or office, a label maker can help. Here are a few of the most important factors to consider when looking at label maker options. Built-In Keyboard vs. Device Connectivity

Niimbot D11 was designed as a compact size making it easy to handle by hand and portable anywhere. Features: The DYMO Label Manager 500TS offers 10 on-board fonts, 25 font sizes, and 32 text styles. It also has a touchscreen that makes it very easy to navigate options.The mid-century modern retro design looks lovely, making it ideal for craft stores that need a label maker and a talking point for customers. The Phomemo-M110 Label Maker is another device with Bluetooth to pair and print from a smartphone or tablet. The app includes 124 preset templates. The print quality is good but it's a lower resolution than the LW-C610.While it is small, there are also smaller label makers, and the LW-C410 takes six AA batteries, which adds to the weight. If you are specifically hoping to organize your living space, the Epson LabelWorks PX 300 Label Maker is a superb choice. It has several preloaded fonts and also allows you to add customizable text styles, icons, and banners. It also comes with a lifetime warranty.

And then there's some options, like the Dymo LabelManager 280 (our Best Overall), that can work as a standalone gadget or when connected to a computer or phone. Our advice? Go with the device that has the features and functionality that are most important to you, regardless of its label (pun intended). As the name suggests this is a tiny device; it's only the size of a smartphone, so needless to say, it won't fit larger printing tape, but it takes on smaller tasks with very little effort. We are not responsible for any issue if you bought our Niimbot D11 from any other Store. Beware of imitation.

The biggest difference? The latest version offers Bluetooth capabilities, along with a USB cable that gives you the option to print from a computer or mobile device like your phone. It still has a full QWERTY keyboard for on-the-spot printing, too, as well as a full-color screen and full QWERTY keyboard, plus an impressive selection of fonts and customizable lettering options. One of our favorite features from testing the Brother PTD600 was the ability to power it with an adapter or wirelessly with batteries, and we're happy to report that this is also available in the newer model. If you are specifically looking for a desktop labeler, the Brother P-Touch PT- D610BTVP Business Professional Connected Label Maker is our top choice. We want to be clear that we tested an older model, the Brother PTD600 PC-Connectable Labeler. However, with that option now discontinued, and this updated version available in its place, we're excited about the possibilities.
